Golden with light haze, big white head, great retention, rings of lace
Grapefruit, dank, pine, and some tropical fruit hop aromas
Pils and light caramel malt, followed by citrus and grassy hop flavors
Medium-light bodied with good carbonation
Tastes like a hazy IPA with Chico yeast and different water treatment, not WCIPA built from the ground up

Poured from the can into a branded tulip glass.
Deep brass yellow body color, and very clear, nearly crystal in appearance. Head creation manages about three fingers but also has very soapy retention. Quick descend, leaves to a good thick collar, and a touch of clingy lace.
Aroma goes more for a dank note, and touches herbal spicy, and very green sensing hop angles. Comes off very fresh, almost leaf and chlorophyl with big earthy tones. Very bold, and solid, but was expecting more grapefruit and citrus angles on the nose.
Palate continues from the expected nose. A big bold earthy push of hop, nearly weedy in dank flavor on first sip. Very good thick body, almost like a mix of thick resin and dense chewy malt. Finishes more with big earthy and dirt flavors, nearly smokey weed and even hits of black pepper like bitterness.
Very neat beer, a little different than what I was expecting, but a good weedy like buzz, in a small package.
